phyliss | hello | 02:33 |
phyliss | I am relatively new to Linux and Ubuntu and need help with a Xubuntu install | 02:33 |
phyliss | Everything is going well, but I can't get the wireless card to hook up to a wireless network | 02:33 |
phyliss | I have downloaded and installed the ndiswrapper and the driver that came with the card | 02:34 |
phyliss | a Linksys WPC54GS | 02:35 |
=== Jester45 [n=ryan1@75-121-97-18.dyn.centurytel.net] has joined #xubuntu | ||
phyliss | anyone? | 02:39 |
nonlocal | !wifi | 02:40 |
ubotu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 02:40 |
nonlocal | sorry I can't be of specific help, it's been a long time since I setup madwifi and I'll have to learn it all over next time I do it :) | 02:41 |
phyliss | I've been poring over the WiFi docs and nothing is working so far, but thanks | 02:42 |
phyliss | anyone else have any ideas? | 02:42 |
vidd | phyliss, what does lspci (if its a pci card) say? | 02:42 |
phyliss | hold on, and I will tell you | 02:43 |
vidd | is the card a bcm43xx card? | 02:43 |
phyliss | 0000:00:0f.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02) | 02:43 |
vidd | that explains why you are having issues | 02:44 |
phyliss | one of the wifi docs says that the BCM4318 means that a lot of the stuff on their installtion instructions doesn't apply | 02:44 |
phyliss | any potential solutions? | 02:44 |
vidd | if you are going to use ndiswrapper, you need to blacklist the native driver.... | 02:44 |
phyliss | I just read a thread about the blacklist.... | 02:45 |
phyliss | how do I go about doing that? | 02:45 |
vidd | if you are going to run the native driver, sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter | 02:45 |
vidd | and get rid of that sell-out app ndiswrapper | 02:46 |
phyliss | how do I uninstall ndis? via synaptics? | 02:46 |
vidd | how did you install it? | 02:47 |
phyliss | command line | 02:47 |
vidd | apt-get? aptitude? | 02:47 |
phyliss | here's an error I get with the code you just sent: E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable) | 02:47 |
phyliss | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?' | 02:47 |
vidd | so is synaptic running? | 02:48 |
phyliss | I believe, apt-get | 02:48 |
phyliss | Yes, I have it up right now | 02:48 |
vidd | that is why you get that error | 02:49 |
phyliss | ok, let me shut it and try it again | 02:49 |
vidd | so either use synaptic to add bcm43xx | 02:49 |
=== Jester45 [n=ryan1@75-121-97-18.dyn.centurytel.net] has joined #xubuntu | ||
vidd | or close it and use command line | 02:49 |
phyliss | it's working now...didn't know that it wouldn't work with Synaptics open | 02:50 |
phyliss | so, I'm downloading a Linux native driver? | 02:50 |
phyliss | it says it's done | 02:51 |
vidd | no...the native driver is built into the kernel....what you did is get the firmware to use it | 02:51 |
phyliss | oh, cool...the command in the wifi docs didn't get the result I just got | 02:52 |
vidd | now you need to undo what ever you did to install ndiswrapper | 02:52 |
phyliss | Do I need to remove ndiswrapper? If so, what is the cleanest way to do that? | 02:52 |
vidd | then set up your network | 02:53 |
phyliss | thanks very much by the way, for the help | 02:53 |
phyliss | should this work? sudo make uninstall ndiswrapper | 02:55 |
nonlocal | if you compiled it that should work | 02:55 |
phyliss | shoot...it didn't, it said "make command not found" | 02:55 |
nonlocal | you need to be in the ndiswrapper directory | 02:55 |
nonlocal | http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/index.php?/component/option,com_openwiki/Itemid,33/id,uninstall/ | 02:56 |
nonlocal | might help | 02:56 |
Jester45 | whats the driver for ext3 on windows | 02:56 |
Jester45 | i cant seem to find it | 02:56 |
phyliss | excellent, thanks | 02:57 |
nonlocal | Jester45: ext2IFS? | 02:57 |
Jester45 | just found that | 02:57 |
Jester45 | i couldnt remeber the name either | 02:57 |

TheSheep | vinze: they did it because removing them was a lot of work and introduced bugs and really was just copy-pasting the code from the gnome libs into the application | 05:19 |
vinze | Yeah, but then they also could've used other apps couldn't they? | 05:19 |
TheSheep | vinze: the libraries they allowed was gnome-vfs and something more, both pretty small | 05:19 |
TheSheep | vinze: no, because there are not other apps with the same functionality but without gnome libs | 05:20 |

TheSheep | vinze: and the apps with slightle less functionality are not supported anymore | 05:20 |
TheSheep | vinze: there is practically no cd/dvd burining application for gtk that would still be supported | 05:21 |
vinze | Bottom line: there is no real alternative to shipping gnome libs considering Xubuntu's target audience | 05:21 |
vidd | they are adding a "places" app... a useless indulgence that xubuntu was perfectly fine without | 05:22 |
TheSheep | vinze: I think it's more about the amount of work required to get them rolling -- the current xubuntu team can't really dream of keeping all the non-ubuntu apps updated | 05:22 |
vinze | TheSheep, lack of manpower sucks :( | 05:22 |
vinze | vidd, there are many people (including me) that welcome the Places app | 05:22 |
TheSheep | vidd: I *love* the places plugin, I was attempting to write one myself some year ago (never got it working), I filled a bug with a request for this and I | 05:23 |
TheSheep | 'm using it every day | 05:23 |
vinze | I'd use it every day if I were using Gutsy | 05:23 |
TheSheep | and it's absolutely the best panel plugin to date | 05:23 |
vidd | so make it available via the "add to panel" rather then force me to try to figure out how to get rid of it | 05:23 |
TheSheep | vidd: you *still* don't know how to remove applets from the panel? :) | 05:24 |
vinze | It's easier to find out how to remove the Places plugin than to find out it exists and how to add it | 05:24 |
vidd | i want to get it off my system...not just hide it from view | 05:24 |
vinze | Just because I don't need the Applications menu because I can right-click the desktop doesn't mean it should be removed! | 05:24 |
vidd | the thunar launcher on the panel works just fine | 05:25 |
TheSheep | vidd: honestly, the places plugin is a great thing, shame the gnome guys are getting rid of it and replacing it with WindowsXP-like start menu | 05:25 |
vinze | vidd, you know you are being unreasonable. Just because the Thunar launcher works fine for you it does mean that is the case for everyone | 05:26 |
vidd | its a useless waste of space | 05:26 |
vinze | vidd, you are the first person I've heard of that finds it useless | 05:27 |
TheSheep | it's the only way to access my drives because I don't have icons on my desktop | 05:27 |
TheSheep | (I can't have them on the desktop, I do graphics work and they distract me) | 05:27 |
vinze | Me neither | 05:27 |
vidd | you cant access your drives in thunar??? | 05:27 |
TheSheep | vidd: no, it doesn't have them in the menu | 05:28 |
vinze | TheSheep, and the Places menu does? | 05:28 |
TheSheep | vinze: yes | 05:28 |
vidd | so its a shortcoming of thunar | 05:28 |
vinze | Weird... How could that be? | 05:28 |
TheSheep | vidd: indeed | 05:28 |
vidd | so fix thunar rather then import a gnome app with all it's dependencies | 05:29 |
TheSheep | vidd: still, the places plugin was written faster than they took care of my bug report/feature request for thunar | 05:29 |
TheSheep | vidd: and as far as I know, the places plugin is now serving as a testing ground for future thunar functionalities | 05:29 |
TheSheep | vidd: (it's easier to test on small app) | 05:29 |
TheSheep | vidd: including mounting of samba shares | 05:29 |
vinze | And when I'd first open Thunar it would first have to load all the files in my home directory before I could go to my drives | 05:30 |
=== vidd has to go...ill be back in about an hour | ||
vinze | Places plugin makes it easy to go directly to my drives saving me time | 05:30 |
vinze | See ya | 05:30 |
TheSheep | vinze: and zeroconf-advertised nfs and ftp shares too, of course | 05:30 |
vinze | Those too, but I don't use them ;) | 05:30 |

Thunarboy | I was messing about with openbox and I messed up xfce, Everytime I start xfce, xfwm doesn't start, i have to press alt+f2 and run "xfmw4" from there. Anybody know what's wrong and how I can fix it? | 09:34 |

=== vinze [n=vinze@a80-126-159-235.adsl.xs4all.nl] has joined #xubuntu | ||
vidd | so why not download the needed apps as .deb's and put them on a disk.... | 09:35 |
vidd | then you can install them on the machine you need | 09:36 |
kalami | i'm using a default live cd. | 09:36 |
vidd | so the live cd gets you connected? | 09:36 |
Thunarboy | can anybody help me here? | 09:36 |
kalami | it's kinda annoying that xubuntu doesn't have pppoe but has ppp and wvdial installed. | 09:37 |
vinze | Thunarboy, what's the problem? | 09:37 |
kalami | the live cd can get me connected if there a pppoe binary installed by default | 09:37 |
Thunarboy | kalami: I was messing about with openbox and I messed up xfce, Everytime I start xfce, xfwm doesn't start, i have to press alt+f2 and run "xfmw4" from there. How can I fix this? | 09:37 |
kalami | is there any equivalent of that? | 09:37 |
vidd | so what are you connected to now? | 09:37 |
Thunarboy | thanks | 09:37 |
kalami | i'm using a windows machine, atm. | 09:38 |
kalami | sorry Thunarboy, I have no idea about your issue. | 09:38 |
vinze | Thunarboy, you *could* add "xfwm4" to Applications->Settings->Autostarted Applications | 09:38 |
vinze | It's kinda workaroundish, but it should do the trick | 09:38 |
vidd | ok...so on the windows machine....get the .deb's you need for that how-to | 09:38 |
kalami | but I already burned the cd. | 09:39 |
vidd | yeah....? | 09:39 |
kalami | so there's no way to add packages anymore. | 09:39 |
Thunarboy | vinze: Thanks, I'll stick it in autostart | 09:39 |
vidd | so use the disk.... | 09:39 |
kalami | you mean the mounted NTFS drives? | 09:40 |
vidd | but also (on another disk or usb drive) | 09:40 |
kalami | oh, yeah. why haven't I thought of that? Thanks! | 09:40 |
kalami | I'll look for a pppoe binary. hold on. | 09:40 |
kalami | Thanks again, vidd! I just downloaded pppoe and will give it a try later on. | 09:46 |

equinoxe | at it makes me crazy | 10:45 |
vinze | Oh... | 10:45 |
equinoxe | :| | 10:45 |
vinze | You could try closing them, loggin out and select "Save session" | 10:45 |
greg | TheSheep didnt work | 10:45 |
equinoxe | it isn't checked... | 10:45 |
vinze | But if you do when you have all applications closed, they won't start when you login again | 10:46 |
vinze | Of course, the next time you logout you'll have to uncheck it again | 10:46 |
equinoxe | they are closed | 10:46 |
equinoxe | I'm closing each 7 each time | 10:46 |
equinoxe | :| | 10:46 |
vinze | Yeah, but after doing that you should logout and check "Save session" | 10:46 |
